think this ones for paul on here - but i will post so others can see as well !.

got your profile through paul ( thanks ) just gonna fire up the press's ( feel asleep earlier for 2 hrs lol )
questions -

i click on the profile to use, no problem - do i adjust ANYTHING else in settings ( printer )
cause when i select best print(as your suposed to ), it goes to manual profile.....does it knock off your profile ? - or is it still using yours even tho its says "custom profile " now :confused:

hope i explained that ok ?

you got to have it set as the day you was printing color charts my friend. When you printing via photoshop/elements then you should do what was in second pdf. all settings there. you need to choice to photoshop menages the colors and pick your custom profile. all will print perfect :)

Well dont keep us in suspenders, as a fellow 5910 owner (but not yet set up) I would love to see a sample :smile:

I need to purchase some consumables first then probably be on to Paul myself.

Anyway lets hope it is plain sailing from here for you.

if you will be using same inks and printer then is worth to try to use same profile... I dont think it will work but is worth to have a go i say... it wont hurt :)

Well, a bit cheeky to expect someone to send me their paid for profile I would have thought? Although I wouldnt turn the offer down lol :rolleyes:

well is not necessary like that... Person paid for profile to have EXACT match to his printer and inks. sharing it is only "mean time" solution. or if its works then you can send some beer money to the person as a thank you :cool:
I use to use different profile for different printer years ago. it worked some way but when custom profile was made for my printer I saw big diference...

At no point did I think it was a waste of money lol. I am more than happy to spend my money getting one for myself as I need some templates anyway. But absolutely no point in getting a profile until I have some sublimation paper is there lol. Trouble is I will want to play when I get the mats.
